3 Series is still the best car in the Sport Sedan category. I compared it to 2024 Model 3 (Highland) but came to the conclusion that Model 3 is only suitable for people who want to commute from point A to B and save on gas. For everything else, 3 Series is the better car: Driving Dynamic, Design, Built Quality, Fit and Finish, iDrive, Comfortable seating, Leather like upholstery (compared to much worse polyurethane like seating material on Model 3).

I have a 330ix 2024 loaner care right now and while the interior is very nice, the brake pedal is overly sensitive, and the transmission is not smooth, especially when it is downshifting during braking. The start/stop feature is also not very smooth. I wonder if the mild hybrid system is impacting all of these issues. This is a good car, but it just doesn’t seem to be as refined as I was expecting it to be.

It is the ultimate driving machine

I love this vehicle! The ride is very smooth. It’s extremely responsive. It’s beautiful to look at it. It’s the perfect size it and it handles well in all weather. Today was a great day. Do you know why? Because I was driving my ultimate driving machine! I drove literally 20 small and midsize SUVs before I picked this vehicle. I did a lot of research and landed on it. I happen to like the interior which is probably one of the number one areas discussed in reviews. It’s simple and refined at the same time and the ease of use is phenomenal, BMW has it right on technology. I have every option available and it was worth it!

Not a fan...

I rented a 2024 BMW 330i because I've never driven a BMW before. The Good: This 4 cyl. turbo engine is amazing, powerful, quiet and very fuel efficient, just an absolute dream. Steering is also fantastic and it drives really, really well. The Bad: Well, I've owned a lot of cars, of which only one was a luxury car and the materials inside are pretty cheap, plasticky for a sub-$60,000 car. The driver area is tight (like way too tight, I'm 5'11) the door being short, so getting in and out I found to be not fun at all. Back seat space, tight even for my 11 year old. Little things turned me off: no A/C knobs (I've heard most cars are like this now), so to turn up the air, press Fan, then turn up air. With a knob, I don't need to even look when I'm going 80. And the screen is far, so I have to stretch (someone shorter... just no way). Also, low A/C is too low, next up... low-med... blast of air. A/C is nice and cold, though. To turn on A/C, no 'On/Off', just that 'Power' icon with the circle & line thru it... just put On/Off please. Seats... basically suck big time. Whoever says they're comfortable is lying. RPM tachometer, nope... has "+Charge" from 10% to 100%... Well, I thought it was a Hybrid, but no, weird @#$ tach.. Ride is firm, wasn't too bad, I had it on Comfort, but Comfort feels like Sport.... taut. In short, not kidding here, if someone gave it to me, I would sell it immediately. This is the most overrated car I've ever driven. It IS fun, though. I'm glad some people buy them, though, because the engine/cornering are fantastic, a 10/10. BUT, love-hate for me. Sorry for the acidic review... P.S. With 25% tariffs coming, this car will be completely unaffordable.

I like it, is sporty but I would have liked it more if it was 4wheel drive and that included blind spots. Overall it’s a great car.
